Chungking – ‘Love is Here to Stay’ (Institute) Released 07/05/07

A slick as a thick coating of red lip gloss, Chungking's 'Love is Here to Stay' is the sound of a band who've pulled on their stilettos and are ready for a good night out. The Brighton pair are on somewhat poppier form than in their past outing, and are all the better for it. Expect the Goldfrapp comparisons to come flying - from the clapping, stompy intro to the dirty bass overlaid with whispering vocals, it's not far removed from Alison and co. However, that doesn't stop it from being quite a fabulous tune in its own right.
